Flights to Trappeto, Sicily from NT$2,520

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. Check out these handy hints that will help get your Trappeto vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, travel docs, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Trappeto, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
